Yea, though 1 walk through the mud to vots for him and shout myself hoarse, when he is elected he straightway forget; eth me, Yea, though I meet him in his own of- fice. he knoweth me not. Surely the wool has been pulled over my eyes all the davs of my life. THERE is a great deal of food for re- flection in the following. which: was last week contributed to the Meversdale Reg- Fister by a Confluence correspondent: Three-fourths of the men who voted for Cleve- land on the 8th inst. never did business nnder ts tariff for revenue only’ policy. From 1846 to 1860 the Democratic policy prevailed. From 1880 to the present time the Repnblican policy has been in force. The majority of the present vot- ers are under fifty years of age; many of them were not here during the forties and fifties, and practically know nothing of the workings of “a tariff for revenne only.” When the Republican party first came into power the financial condi- tion of the country was in '& deplorable condi- tion. Government bonds sold, ‘when they conld be sold at sll, at about twelye percent. disconnt. | The U. 8. Treasury was empty and labor went begging. The argument that the conntry must have been prosperous. because there were no la- bor strikes availeth nothing, because there was ‘nothing to strike for unless it was for soup houses, maintained by the. public. The frequenters at those houses were not only the infirm but those with strong bodies and willing hands to toil. . Farmers found it difficnit to raise money to pay the taxes. There was no market for many of the things that now bring the ready cash. The garden yielded no income because there was no market, ‘The orchard was no better as a sonrce of revenue tothe owner A bushel of cherries or peaches would not buy a garden hoe! Ten ‘bushels of apples would not ‘any more than buy a stable fork. A good cow ora steer would pos: sible buy a plow, stich as ‘no one would hitch to | now. ‘Two dozen of eggs wonld, when eggs were scarce. buy a yard of muslin spun and wove in England. A pound of butter, if kegged and kept from spring until fall, would buy two yards of calico.” Two good horses would buy a buggy. ‘Had it not been for the Johnstown works what would the north of Somerset county be as com- pared with its present condition? The first steel rails mannfactured in this country. were made at Johnstown about the year 1860. Seven years later they were sold for a price within fifty cents of the duty upon them. In 1860 we paid about $160 per tou for steel rails made in England. What would we pay for them now could we not manufacture here at home? Take the duty off of steel rails now and let Johnstown close her works and who that voted for Cleveland will not regret his vote inside of twelve months? To Our Subseribers. There are two newspapers in this county that do not publish resolutions efrespect and lengthy obituscy notices free of charge. These two pa- pers are Tug Somurskr County Star and the Somerset Herald, We do not know how it is with the Herald, but the principal reason {that Tae Star has put a tariff on such matter isto keep. it out of the paper, as we believe that the | majority of our readers prefer to see our pages : flied with live news and “editurialm matter in pref 1 shall { He filleth my pockets with | De fine cigars aud my beer glass runneth erence to dreary obituary notices and resolutions of respect. We notice that some of our exchang- es that print such matter free of charge are so burdened with such matter as to make them pre- sent a very doleful appearance, something which we believe newspaper readers in general do not sanction. Or course we always make mention of deaths; ete., as a matter of news. but only so far as we believe the public in general eares for. and we have always reserved the exclusive right to say or leave unsaid whatever we deem best re: lating to deaths, orof the life and character of the persons deceased. We believe. we have the right view of it, but we are willing to Jet it to our patrons and do that which the greatest number of them desire in the matter. Therefore, we have prepared the following blask, which will be kept in the paper up to Jan. 1st, and which we desire every one of our patrons to cut from the paper, fill out and forward to Toe Star. If most of our readers want an obituary sheet, they can have it, and all such matter will then be pub- lished free of charge. We want to do inthe mat- ter whatever will please the greatest number of our patrons. 3 Following is the blank; scratch the part you do not want to vote, sign your name and forward blank to Tre STAR. The vote will be published in our first issue after Jan. 1st. None but votes of subseribers will be counted. Evitor. SraR:— I would prefer to have voi publish obituary notiees, resolutions of respect. ete., as prepared by friends and relatives of the deceased, free of ‘charge.
